As you explore the features on this lovely old cottage home, compare them to the typical characteristics of the Cotswald Cottage Revival, popular in the 1920s and 1930s. Make this home your own, and you can boast of owning Phoenix's perfect examplar of this style of architecture. Only one other house in the city is as faithful to the design, but this home at 1134 W Culver St was built by the builder for his own family.

"Small, rectangular plan with irregular, asymmetrical facade."
